1.10.3 Solaris binary
by Brian Hooper 21 Jun '99

21 Jun '99

Hi - I was just noticing that the Zope 1.10.2 had a Solaris binary dist, but 1.10.3 does not... Is there a standard procedure or set of scripts which are used to create the distributed Zope binaries? If so, then I'm sure that we could get a good number of contributed precompiled binaries for a lot of different platforms! (Or, would that become its own maintenance mess?) If someone gives me a few pointers I would love to contribute a Solaris binary dist myself... --Brian

RE: [Zope] Newbie Q: Passing REQUEST.form data to a Z SQL Method
by Alexander Staubo 21 Jun '99

21 Jun '99

If I understand your problem correctly, you'd like to pass form variables to the SQL Method? If so, here's one way of doing it:  This will essentially make REQUEST part of the namespace accessible to Test_sql. Note that this would lead to problems if your SQL Method refers to variables that should not be overrideable by REQUEST, such as security-related "where" conditions. To avoid such cases, pass all pertinent variables explicitly, like so:  This prevents malicious users from requesting URLs like http://www.foo.com/ViewEmployees?name=myname&salary=40000 (assuming you want to block this, of course).

Newbie Q: Passing REQUEST.form data to a Z SQL Method
by Rafael Alvarado 21 Jun '99

21 Jun '99

I have a Z SQL Method that takes an argument. It was constructed with the "Add" --> "Z SQL Method" form. The method works fine when the argument is provided by the automatically built search interface when testing it. Now, how do I have the argument value supplied by a DTML page that passes the value directly as a REQUEST.form object? It seems that this should be a very simply problem, yet I have search all available documents for an answer without success. Thanks to anyone who can help Rafael C.

external method: imports delimited data
by Alex Rice 20 Jun '99

20 Jun '99

I wrote a real simple External Method for importing delimited flat file data into Zope as a heirarchy of folders (rows) and properties (columns). If anyone is interested let me know and I'll email it to you. <scratches head> I should probably be using tinyTables for this instead :-) Alex Rice | alrice(a)swcp.com | http://www.swcp.com/~alrice Current Location: N.

Cookie differences between IE and Netscape
by Graham Chiu 20 Jun '99

20 Jun '99

I'm still having problems with using cookies, and there seems to be differences in the way NS 4.5 and IE 5 respond to the same code. I am trying to create a session id which I track using cookies. I am using the following code in the header of each page       and at the footer of each page, I have the following: sessionID=    Session ID not set  With NS4.5, when I first log on, I get the message that the Session ID is not set. I refresh the page, and then it appears. Thereafter, each page correctly shows the session ID. With IE5.0, when I access the home page, I get the same message that the Session ID is not set. It appears when I reload the page. However, other pages may not show the footer, or displays a different session ID ( from prior log ons as though it is caching the cookie value from before ). I have added <META HTTP-EQUIV="expires" CONTENT="0"> to the header without any change. ------- Regards, Graham Chiu gchiu<at>compkarori.co.nz

how to do stringmanipulation in SQL search templates (fwd)
by Joachim Schmitz 20 Jun '99

20 Jun '99

Here is the solution for my some minutes before posted question: the only thing which was wrong was the quote-char, if I use "'" right-qote instead of "´" (on my keyboard it looks like a vertical quote) it works. They look very similar, in Python I use "´" (vertical) regards Joachim Schmitz some minutes ago I wrote: Hi, I try to accomplish a very simple thing: the select statement shall finally look like this: select * from data where name LIKE 'Ab%' As input in form the user should only give "Ab" and the "%" should be added by default. I tried: select * from data where name LIKE  but that gives a name + ´%´ ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax Any help is welcome Joachim Schmitz

Re: [Zope] really really refresh?

Hi Robin, you wrote: > Pressed refresh, but still saw the odd image. Suspected caching in zope > so restarted zope hit refresh, but still odd. Finally shut down Netscape > and the image got changed. So the problem was with the caching in the browser. ***Food for thought that others may comment on. Is there a way for the image or html files served by zope to serve them with a new date/time every time served rather than their "file date". Can the current system time and date be used? If so, then the browser would be fooled into thinking that the image or html is new? -Bob OConnor bob(a)rocnet.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Robin Becker <robin(a)jessikat.demon.co.uk> To: <zope(a)zope.org> Sent: Saturday, June 19, 1999 9:19 AM Subject: [Zope] really really refresh? > I'm playing with zope2 and after using cvs I saw that the control_panel > icon looked a bit odd so I copied the version from the a2 release. > ... > Robin Becker

Authentication return weird string
by lstep＠mail.dotcom.fr 20 Jun '99

20 Jun '99

Hello, I'm having problems with the AUTHENTICATED_USER variable. Normally, when the administrator authenticates itself, I should have the 'Manager' role returned by the AUTHENTICATED_USER.getRoles() method, right ? When I logon, and then access a web page with the following snippet:  You have the following roles:  <LI>   You have no roles defined.  I get 'manage' as a role, and not 'Manager' !? When browsing without authenticating, I get 'Anonymous', which is right. I'm using Zope 2.0a2, under Linux with Apache and PCGI to send requests to ZServer. For the authorizations, I'm passing them in httpd.conf with: RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*) RewriteRule ^/(.*) /usr/local/Zope/Zope.cgi/$1 [last,e=HTTP_CGI_AUTHORIZATION:%1 Is this a bug from Zope, from the PCGI wrapper, from Apache, from me, or is it normal and if so, what did I miss ?
